Catherine: A Trades Union Leader. Grace: Does John know you’re a radical. Catherine: Oh, yes. Grace: And a suffragette? Catherine: Certainly. Grace [with a smile]: And he still wants to marry you? Catherine: He seems to. Grace: Oh, by the way, I’ve told him to come early for lunch—so that he can have a few words with Father first. Catherine: Good idea. [To ARTHUR]: I hope you’ve been primed, have you, Father? [She rises and goes to ARTHUR.] Arthur: What’s that? Catherine [sitting on the arm of ARTHUR’s chair ]: You know what you’re going to say to John, don’t you? You’re not going to let me down and forbid the match, or anything, are you? Because I warn you, if you do, I shall elope. Arthur [taking her hand ]: Never fear, my dear. I’m far too delighted at the prospect of getting you off our hands at last.

Either 4(a) Read this passage, and then answer the question that follows it: Macbeth: What man dare, I dare. Approach thou like the rugged Russian bear, The arm’d rhinoceros, or th’ Hyrcan tiger; Take any shape but that, and my firm nerves Shall never tremble. Or be alive again, And dare me to the desert with thy sword; If trembling I inhabit, then protest me The baby of a girl. Hence, horrible shadow! Unreal mock’ry, hence! [Exit Ghost. Why, so; being gone, I am a man again. Pray you, sit still. Lady Macbeth: You have displac’d the mirth, broke the good meeting, With most admir’d disorder. Macbeth: Can such things be, And overcome us like a summer’s cloud, Without our special wonder? You make me strange Even to the disposition that I owe, When now I think you can behold such sights And keep the natural ruby of your cheeks, When mine is blanch’d with fear. Ross: What sights, my lord? Lady Macbeth: I pray you speak not; he grows worse and worse; Question enrages him. At once, good night. Stand not upon the order of your going, But go at once. Lennox: Good night; and better health Attend his Majesty! Lady Macbeth: A kind good night to all! [Exeunt Lords and Attendants. Macbeth: It will have blood; they say blood will have blood. Stones have been known to move, and trees to speak; Augurs and understood relations have By maggot-pies and choughs and rooks brought forth The secret’st man of blood. What is the night? Lady Macbeth: Almost at odds with morning, which is which. Macbeth: How say’st thou that Macduff denies his person At our great bidding? Lady Macbeth: Did you send to him, sir? Macbeth: I hear it by the way; but I will send – There’s not a one of them but in this house I keep a servant fee’d – I will to-morrow. And betimes I will to the Weird Sisters; More shall they speak; for now I am bent to know By the worst means the worst. For mine own good All causes shall give way. I am in blood Stepp’d in so far that, should I wade no more, 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45

Muffle me, night, awhile. [Retires. [Enter ROMEO and BALTHASAR, with a torch, a mattock, and a crow of iron.] Romeo: Give me that mattock and the wrenching iron. Hold, take this letter; early in the morning See thou deliver it to my lord and father. Give me the light; upon thy life I charge thee, Whate’er thou hearest or seest, stand all aloof And do not interrupt me in my course. Why I descend into this bed of death Is partly to behold my lady’s face, But chiefly to take thence from her dead fìnger A precious ring – a ring that I must use In dear employment; therefore hence, be gone. But if thou, jealous, dost return to pry In what I farther shall intend to do, By heaven, I will tear thee joint by joint, And strew this hungry churchyard with thy limbs. The time and my intents are savage-wild, More fierce and more inexorable far Than empty tigers or the roaring sea. Balthasar: I will be gone, sir, and not trouble ye. Romeo: So shalt thou show me friendship. Take thou that; Live and be prosperous; and farewell, good fellow. Balthasar [Aside]: For all this same, I’ll hide me hereabout; His looks I fear, and his intents I doubt. [Retires. Romeo: Thou detestable maw, thou womb of death, Gorg’d with the dearest morsel of the earth, Thus I enforce thy rotten jaws to open, [Breaking open the tomb. And, in despite, I’ll cram thee with more food. Paris: This is that banish’d haughty Montague That murd’red my love’s cousin – with which grief It is supposed the fair creature died – And here is come to do some villainous shame To the dead bodies. I will apprehend him. Stop thy unhallowed toil, vile Montague. Can vengeance be pursued further than death? Condemned villain, I do apprehend thee. Obey, and go with me; for thou must die. Romeo: I must indeed; and therefore came I hither. Good gentle youth, tempt not a desp’rate man; Fly hence, and leave me. Think upon these gone; Let them affright thee. I beseech thee, youth, 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45

11 0475/22/F/M/20 © UCLES 2020 Put not another sin upon my head By urging me to fury; O, be gone! By heaven, I love thee better than myself, For I come hither arm’d against myself. Stay not, be gone; live, and hereafter say A madman’s mercy bid thee run away. Paris: I do defy thy conjuration, And apprehend thee for a felon here. Romeo: Wilt thou provoke me? Then have at thee, boy! [They fight. Page: O lord, they fight! I will go call the watch. [Exit. Paris falls. Paris: O, I am slain! If thou be merciful, Open the tomb, lay me with Juliet. [Dies. [from Act 5, Scene 3 ] In what ways does Shakespeare make this moment in the play so distressing?

It shows the basis on which Examiners were instructed to award marks. It does not indicate the details of the discussions that took place at an Examiners’ meeting before marking began, which would have considered the acceptability of alternative answers. Mark schemes should be read in conjunction with the question paper and the Principal Examiner Report for Teachers. Cambridge International will not enter into discussions about these mark schemes.

0475/22 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED March 2020 © UCLES 2020 Page 2 of 4 Generic Marking Principles These general marking principles must be applied by all examiners when marking candidate answers. They should be applied alongside the specific content of the mark scheme or generic level descriptors for a question. Each question paper and mark scheme will also comply with these marking principles. GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 1: Marks must be awarded in line with: • the specific content of the mark scheme or the generic level descriptors for the question • the specific skills defined in the mark scheme or in the generic level descriptors for the question • the standard of response required by a candidate as exemplified by the standardisation scripts. GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 2: Marks awarded are always whole marks (not half marks, or other fractions). GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 3: Marks must be awarded positively: • marks are awarded for correct/valid answers, as defined in the mark scheme. However, credit is given for valid answers which go beyond the scope of the syllabus and mark scheme, referring to your Team Leader as appropriate • marks are awarded when candidates clearly demonstrate what they know and can do • marks are not deducted for errors • marks are not deducted for omissions • answers should only be judged on the quality of spelling, punctuation and grammar when these features are specifically assessed by the question as indicated by the mark scheme. The meaning, however, should be unambiguous. GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 4: Rules must be applied consistently e.g. in situations where candidates have not followed instructions or in the application of generic level descriptors. GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 5: Marks should be awarded using the full range of marks defined in the mark scheme for the question (however; the use of the full mark range may be limited according to the quality of the candidate responses seen). GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 6: Marks awarded are based solely on the requirements as defined in the mark scheme. Marks should not be awarded with grade thresholds or grade descriptors in mind.

0475/22 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED March 2020 © UCLES 2020 Page 3 of 4 Introduction For general administrative guidance, see Notes for Examiners Handbook. All questions are marked out of 25. Assessment Objectives The Assessment Objectives are evenly weighted across each question. The assessment objectives for the paper are: AO1 show detailed knowledge of the content of literary texts, supported by reference to the text AO2 understand the meanings of literary texts and their context, and explore texts beyond surface meaning to show deeper awareness of ideas and attitudes AO3 recognise and appreciate ways in which writers use language, structure, and form to create and shape meanings and effects AO4 communicate a sensitive and informed personal response The Band Descriptors cover marks from 0 to 25, and apply to the marking of each question. They guide examiners to an understanding of the qualities normally expected of, or typical of, work in a band. They are a means of general guidance, and must not be interpreted as hurdle statements.
